Kylie baked 220 croissants. She gave 60 croissants to Harry and some croissants to Reggie. She had
511 of the total croissants left.
- How many croissants did she have left?
- What fraction of the total croissants did she give to Reggie?
(a)
Total number of croissants = 11 u
11 u = 220
1 u = 220 ÷ 11 = 20
Number of croissants that Kylie had left
= 5 u
= 5 x 20
= 100
(b)
Number of croissants that Tina gave to Reggie
= 220 - 100 - 60
= 60
Fraction of the total croissants that Kylie gave to Reggie
=
